About this house rental
Welcome to the cozy, wonderful Cottage of River Winds, a unique and wonderful all-heart redwood cottage designed by early California architect Julia Morgan! This 103-year-old cottage is the heart of our family's memories for 3 generations--and soon to be yours, too. Step back in time in this wonderfully preserved, immaculate home, truly a historic gem of old Carmel. Open beams, all-heart redwood walls, many original features, a stone fireplace, large sunny patio, antique furniture and original oil paintings of the area.
We are happy to share this family treasure with you. Our cottage stands amid a large garden on Carmel Point, just two blocks from Carmel Beach and three from Carmel River Beach. It is close to everything--just one mile to Carmel Village, about 1/2 mile to the Carmel Mission, and easy access to Hwy 1.
We have 3 bedrooms: 2 with queen beds that share a full bath (tub/shower) down a small hallway. The third bedroom is quite small and has 1 full bed with private access to a tiny full bathroom (with shower) in the main part of the house.
Fully supplied kitchen; all linens provided; cable TV, DVD player, iPod player, secure wireless internet, and everything you need for a comfortable stay.
We mostly rent by week or month; shorter stays in wintertime. If the simple peacefulness of bygone times speaks to your heart, you will fall in love with the Cottage of River Winds.

The home was so wonderful and fun! I felt at home immediately and just fell in love with the place! It had all the amenities we needed and was comfortable for us all. I highly recommend and want to come back for a proper vacation, as this stay was for a work trip.

Cozy, clean and well kept cottage. Comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. The garden is beautiful and a great place to meditate or drink your morning coffee. Fantastic location close to the beach and everything Carmel has to offer. The host reached out promptly to check on us when we arrived. We only had a minor issue with a smoke detector false alarm and the property manager showed up within minutes to address it. He was very friendly and thorough. We would definitely stay again at this property.
